raw food recipe broccoli hoisini sauce

Serves 1 – 2 people

5c (500g/1.2lb) small broccoli florets
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon tamari

- Mix all ingredients together a in large bowl and massage with your hands until the broccoli becomes softer, then leave to stand for 10 minutes.

- Transfer the broccoli to a non-stick dehydrator tray and dehydrate for 4 hours at 105 degrees F. You may find it useful (but not essential) to turn the tray around halfway through as the broccoli closest to the fan will dry quicker.

 

For the sauce

1/4 cup tahini
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon yacon syrup or agave
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
3 teaspoons tamari
1/2 a garlic clove
1/2 a small de-seeded chili
1/2cm cube of fresh ginger

- Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender.

- Mix with dehydrated broccoli when ready to serve

- Serve with the parsnip “rice”

 

For the parsnip “rice”

1.5 cups (275g/10oz) peeled parsnips
1.5 tablespoons pine nuts
1 tablespoon macadamia nuts
1 tablespoon light miso
1 tablespoon cold-pressed sesame oil
3 spring onions, finely chopped

- Grind all ingredients, except the spring onions, in a food processor until fluffy and rice-like.

- Transfer to a bowl and stir in the chopped spring onions

    Hi your recipes all look very appetizing , but  they all seem to have lots of nuts and that gives cause for to much fat on they body don’t you think? that could clog your arteries  anyway to much fat is bad  is there a way to thicken and make creamy without nuts?  

  • Kenwyn

    yes this recipe looks very good can’t weight to try it

    Hi Kenwyn,

    Haha, was that an intentional pun?  I’m thinking it may have been due to your previous comment.

    Too much fat is certainly not a good thing.  What too much is, comes down to you to decide – it’s different for each person and I’m assuming most people won’t be eating pistachio florentine sandwiches at every meal :)

    Hi Tresa, that sounds like a great substitution, I can imagine that would have looked amazing!

    Hi Nurjanak,

    Regular hoisin sauce almost certainly does, yes.  That’s why I’ve given you this recipe – so we don’t have to worry about those nasties :)

    Thanks, Julie – I’m glad you didn’t let the no dehydrator situation stop you :)

    I’ve never heard about toxic parsnips before – but I think there has to be a point where we’re not scared of vegetables because somewhere, someone wrote that they’re not good for us.
